What I dislike

I really loathe those parents who left the kid staying outside the door and crying. It's their unavoidable responsibility to teach chlidren what is right and what is wrong.

Face-to-face communication

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Face-to-face communication is better than other types of communications, such as letters, e-mail, or telephone calls. Use specific reasons and details to support your answers.

Successful and effective communication, besides language, contains gesture and facial expressions, which can only be achieved through face-to-face communication. Letters, e-mail, or telephone calls, sincere as they are, cannot show the instant and vivid deep innermost of someone you are communicating with, nor can those coming out of machines give warm hugs and instant comforts from your beloved one.

In contrast to letters, e-mail, or telephone calls, which can only convey words, voices, pictures, or video films, face-to-face communication can make you see and hear and touch the one you are addressing. Through eye contact, you can see his soul; from his intonation, tone of voices, you can feel his emotion, both anger and vigor; owing to the physical contact, such as gestures, facial expressions, you can find the sincerity and active interaction.

Bilateral interchanges, unlike contact through machines, which deprive us of both feelings and emotions from the bottom of our hearts, can both eliminate misunderstanding caused by machines, and improve subtle interchange of souls. The one you are communicating with can, without delay, give you a hug of warmth, a kiss as encouragement, or even a handkerchief to wipe off your tears.

In short, bilateral communication should be completed only trough face-to-face contact. A perfect touch involves both body language and tones of voice; besides, the immediate soothing qualities cannot be attained through machines.

TV

You cannnot make a kid move even a finger when the TV is turning on.
